Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a high power energy storage device additive and a high power energy storage device comprising the same, and more particularly, to a new lithium ion capacitor additive which is added to a carbon-based material applied as a cathode active material for a lithium ion capacitor such that the new lithium ion capacitor additive is capable of improving capacity and energy density by electrochemically doping a lithium ion onto an anode, and the lithium ion capacitor comprising the lithium ion capacitor additive.
Related Art
With the spread of supply in portable small-sized electric and electronic devices, development of new-model secondary batteries such as a nickel hydrogen battery, a lithium secondary battery, a super capacitor, and a lithium ion capacitor is actively being progressed.
An electrochemical capacitor in an electrochemical energy storage device may be divided into an electric double layer capacitor using electric double layer principle and a hybrid super capacitor using electrochemical oxidation-reduction reaction.
An electric double layer capacitor using a physical adsorption reaction of electric charges in an electric double layer has been limited in the application to various application fields due to a low energy density despite excellent output characteristics and lifetime characteristics.
As a means of solving such a problem of the electric double layer capacitor, a lithium ion capacitor among hybrid super capacitors using a carbon-based material that is capable of inserting and extracting lithium ions as an anode active material has been suggested.
The lithium ion capacitor is a secondary battery system of a new concept which combines high power/long lifetime characteristics of an existing electric double layer capacitor (EDLC) with high energy density of a lithium ion battery.
In an electric double layer super capacitor using an activated carbon electrode in both electrodes, charging and discharging are achieved by a non-faradic reaction in which ions are physically adsorbed onto or desorbed from the surface of the electrode. On the other hand, in a lithium ion capacitor, a non-electrochemical reaction in which the ions are physically adsorbed or desorbed occurs in a cathode, and an electrochemical reaction in which lithium ions are electrochemically inserted into or extracted from a graphite layer structure occurs in an anode. Accordingly, the lithium ion capacitor is capable of obtaining a very larger electric capacity than the electric double layer super capacitor.
In order to stably realize high electric capacity characteristics of the lithium ion capacitor, a process of pre-doping a graphite anode with lithium is required. A high energy density can be obtained by pre-doping lithium onto the graphite anode, thereby maintaining an electric potential of the graphite anode at the same electric potential level as that of lithium metal during charging and discharging of the lithium ion capacitor. The lithium ion capacitor can sharply reduce the electric potential of the anode, can realize a high voltage of 3.8 V or higher that is greatly improved than a cell voltage of a conventional electric double layer capacitor of 2.5 V, and can implement a high energy density by pre-doping lithium ions with a high ionization tendency onto the anode.
A conventional method of pre-doping lithium onto the graphite anode adopts a method that metal lithium laminated by an electric potential difference between the anode and metal lithium is melted into the anode only by laminating metal lithium onto the electrode and injecting the metal lithium laminated onto the electrode into an electrolytic solution, thereby short circuiting the anode and metal lithium. That is, the graphite electrode is electrochemically doped with lithium in a state that the two electrodes are separated from each other after dipping the graphite electrode and a lithium metal electrode in the electrolyte.
However, when the electrochemical doping process is a lithium doping process of laminating metal lithium onto the electrode, it is difficult to control the amount of lithium doped onto the anode, it is hard to obtain safety according to lithium metal generated in the doping process, a very slow doping rate of lithium causes an increase in process costs, and the electrochemical doping process becomes a major impediment to universalization of the lithium ion capacitor accordingly.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

1 M LiPF6 dissolved in ethylene glycol (EC)/dimethyl chloride (DMC) at a ratio of 3:7 was used as a electrolyte.
A capacitor was manufactured by the same method as in the above-mentioned Manufacturing Example except that the Li6-xCoO4 particles as an additive were not included as Comparative Example.
Experimental Example Evaluation of Charge and Discharge Characteristics
After initial galvanostatic charge and discharge characteristics for a capacitor comprising the Li6-xCoO4 prepared in the Manufacturing Example were measured while changing a cut-off voltage from 2.0 V to 4.3 V, the measurement result is shown in FIG. 7, and a result of measuring an in situ XRD according to a charging and discharging process is also shown in FIG. 7.
In the result of measuring the initial galvanostatic charge and discharge characteristics of FIG. 7, Li ions can be extracted with two plateau regions at 3.5 and 3.8V during the initial charging, Li ion is not reversibly inserted at initial discharge. As a result, an initial efficiency of 1.14% was attained. The charge capacity responsible for Li ions extraction was estimated to be 630.2 mAh/g−1 (about 3.75 mol of Li ions extraction) and only 7.2 mAh/g−1 for Li ions insertion.
In the charging and discharging process From the in situ XRD, along with Li ions extraction, (101), (222), and (400) peaks become broad without peak shift. It can be confirmed that the extracted Li ion could not be inserted into again.
Experimental Example Evaluation of XPS Characteristics
XPS characteristics for a capacitor comprising the Li6-xCoO4 particles prepared in Example of the present invention were measured, and the measurement result is shown in FIG. 8.
FIG. 8 is XPS spectra of (a) C 1s, (b) Co 2p, and (c) O 1s.
It can be seen that an oxidation-reduction reaction of Co2+/Co3+ causes Li ions to be emitted since a 780.4 eV peak corresponding to Co3+ appears when x is 1 in Li6-xCoO4 while the Li ions are being inserted or emitted although a peak at 779.8 eV represents the highest strength due to Co2+ ions before the Li ions are inserted or emitted.
It can be confirmed that Co+4 is not further oxidized when x is 3.75 or more although an oxidation-reduction reaction of Co3+/Co4+ causes Li ions to be emitted thereafter since a peak of Co3+ is decreased, a peak strength of Co4+ observed at 781.4 eV is increased while Li ions are continuously being emitted until x becomes 2.0.
A result of measuring an oxidized charge quantity according to an x value is shown in FIG. 9. As shown in FIG. 9, Co+4 is not further oxidized into Co+5 when x is 3.75 or more, and the oxidized charge quantity denotes a negative value of vacancy formation energy when x is 3.5 or more. Therefore, it can be seen that a structural defect is exhibited when x is 3.5 or more although the Li ions are emitted according to changes in oxidation number without structural degradation when x is 3.5 or lower.
Experimental Example Measurement of Behaviors According to Changes in Cut-Off Voltages
It can be confirmed that a charge/discharge profile is exhibited in an abnormal shape when the capacitor is cut-off at a voltage of 4.5 V even in FIG. 10 showing the case that the capacitor is overcharged by changing cutoff voltages.
Experimental Example Evaluation of Pre-Doping Characteristics
Initial pre-doping characteristics were measured in the case of Example which comprises Li6-xCoO4 according to the present invention and in the case of Comparative Example which does not comprise Li6-xCoO4, and the measured results are shown in a) and b) of FIG. 11.
It can be seen from a) and b) of FIG. 11 that, in the case of Example which comprises Li6-xCoO4 according to the present invention, capacity of the cathode is increased as much as 0.404 mAh by pre-doping of Li, and voltage of the anode is lowered as much as 0.31 V since extracted Li ions were delivered into anode.
Experimental Example Evaluation of Charge and Discharge Characteristics
After performing initial pre-doping process, charge and discharge characteristics were measured in the case of Example which comprises Li6-xCoO4 according to the present invention and in the case of Comparative Example which does not comprise Li6-xCoO4 according to the present invention, and the measured results are shown in c) to f) of FIG. 11.
It can be confirmed that charge and discharge characteristics and lifetime characteristics are greatly improved in the case of Example which comprises Li6-xCoO4 according to the present invention.
As described above, a lithium ion capacitor comprising a lithium ion capacitor additive according to the present invention can electrochemically dope the anode with lithium even without performing a pre-doping process using lithium metal as in the conventional lithium ion capacitor. Therefore, it is possible to additionally secure safety of the lithium ion capacitor and improve energy density of the lithium ion capacitor through improvement of the lithium doping process. Further, a safety problem of workers can also be solved by removing ignition possibility of highly flammable lithium ions in an existing doping process using lithium metal.
Accordingly, the present invention is expected to greatly contribute to the creation of a new market simultaneously requiring high power and high energy characteristics as well as an existing market of lithium ion batteries. In particular, the present invention can be applied to application fields for compensating an instant voltage drop of a ubiquitous power supply or new renewable energy and improving efficiency of the ubiquitous power supply or new renewable energy. Further, the present invention can also be applied to various fields including key components of an electric vehicle or an electric rail car.
The lithium ion capacitor additive according to the present invention is capable of emitting 3 mols or more of lithium ions even at a low voltage of 4.4 V or less, and the lithium ion capacitor including the lithium ion capacitor additive according to the present invention is capable of electrochemically doping lithium onto the anode even without performing a pre-doping process using lithium metal as in a conventional lithium ion capacitor.
